5 years because when you divide 90 by 18 to get how many years it takes the tree to grow to 90 inches tall, you get 5.
Expand the brackets first
5(wx-v) = 9(x + v)
5wx - 5v = 9x + 9v
Get all x's on one side and everything on on the other side
9x - 5wx = 9v + 5v
factorise out the x
x(9-5w) = 14v
then divide by 9-5w
x = 14v/(9-5w)
If it is not intersect they are not parallel
Answer:
I have uploaded a picture so you could understand it a little more.
A linear function is when there is a table that gives numbers that represent a function, as shown in the picture.
In the Image, there is a table with a x and y column. And in both columns, there are numbers.
This is what the table looks like in the picture:
<u> x y </u>
0 4 The key is y = 2x + 4
1 6 <------ lets grab the number 1 in the x column and lets
2 8 multiply it by two. Now add four to it, and we will
3 10 have the number 6 in the y column.
4 12
